Anyone else here play Wordle?

Oops, sorry! Had an early, emergency job to do for work yesterday morning, and then forgot to post!

We should apologize Patty. There are a lot of retired guys hanging around this site and playing Wordle. We've forgotten about that whole work thing.

Are you able to go back and get your score from a previous day?

Are you able to go back and get your score from a previous day?

Yes, there's a wee trick. You go to settings, time and language, then date and time; turn off "set the time zone automatically" and "set the time automatically," then click on "set the time manually", select whichever date you want, then click "change." Then you just open your browser, open Wordle and voilà, you can play any game you missed (or get the stats for a game you played but forgot to post).

Wow. That’s great to know. Thanks!

Also, another way. I play on my phone, and I have to save my games to my clipboard so I can paste them here, so my last 10 games or so are saved on my clipboard.

Yup, that's the best solution when you've played a game, but have forgotten to post the results. The "change date" option allows you to go back and play previous games you've missed.

Yup, another one of those dastardly "50-choices-just-one-letter-off" words!

So you don't lose your streak?

Good question, Greg. So far, I've only gone back to get a game I had played but hadn't posted, so my streak was unaffected. If you actually skip a game all together, you may well lose your streak.

Wow! Brutal day.

I’m pretty sure I suggested to NOT follow the leader.
